About our remedial sealant in Ardeer
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about gaps opening along the back of the worktop and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Remedial sealant around Ardeer
Ardeer is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Glencairn Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Stevenston station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as Ardeer Church Of Scotland, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Why act early in Ardeer
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. In a place like Ardeer, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. Outdoor work around Ardeer depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
